So… a busy few weeks! Corn planting ended up being done pretty much on average, but the early spring did mean there were absolutely no ‘wet spots’ in any fields. It was in great shape, although it was a bit dusty! The soybeans got done too. The tile did get put in on holiday Monday. Between Kevin, Grandpa, and me, the mini-excavator ran 12 hours straight. But the planting is done!
So it seems a bit overwhelming that Cousin Bob started cutting hay on Wed. That’s only one day between finishing planting, and starting harvesting!
I only have sheep to finish lambing (and a whole lot of new lambs that haven’t been tagged yet..) A feeder to build for haylage, a silo floor to re-cement before we start Haylage. Corn to spray (’cause those weeds are starting to grow pretty good too!) and a forage harvester to get ready.
Makes life interesting!!
